WBI Executive Survey #6

This week we share another picture from our annual Executive Survey and Panel Discussion at the Wine Industry Financial Symposium.  The year is 2022 and the players in this edition all have a very close relationship to the Wine Business Institute.  

Staff Member Emily Porter built the survey and presented the results with us at Copia. Our panelists included Board Member Dana Sexton Vivier and Alumna Prema Kerollis.  The team took extensive time to prepare for the big show and we received resounding kudos from the audience during the Leadership Reception and Dinner that evening. 

Prema continues to manage Three Sticks and has gone onto greater recognition across the wine industry, including the SCV-WBI Wine Business Leadership Award.  I firmly believe that when we give the next generation of leaders an opportunity to be on the stage, the wine industry experiences the proof of our programs.

Scholarships for first generation students are abundant at Sonoma State.  Check out our Wine Industry Scholars Program and prepare to submit an application:  Undergraduate Scholarships.
